Air Fryer naan recipe | Baked naan recipe with step wise pictorial and video method.
Naan is a very popular South Asian (most particularly India) leavened flatbread made using all purpose flour (maida) and usually cooked in tandoor (clay oven).
Well known for its soft & chew texture, naan complements a wide range of dishes and mostly served in restaurants and hotels. Without an iota of doubt, naan remains a delightful accompaniment that adds a touch of warmth and richness to diverse culinary experiences.
Comes in various varities like Butter Naan, Laccha Naan, Garlic Naan, Paneer Naan, Onion Naan, Stuffed Naan, Pudina Naan, Chili Cheese naan, Amritsari Naan, Aloo Matar Naan, Peshawari Naan, Garlic Methi Naan, Amritsari Choor Choor Naan etc, naan knows no bounds.
And the popularity of this Asian cuisine has transcended cultural borders, becoming a global favorite.
Naan is traditionally cooked in clay oven (tandoor) which imparts a distinctive flavor and char to it but the clay oven is something not available at homes.
In the absence of clay oven, don’t think you can’t get to cherish this delicacy and if you have air fryer or oven at home, this recipe can be all yours.
Both air Fryer and oven make these naan so quickly and you have a naan in your plate in less than 5 minutes.
Though naan can be made on tawa as well, but that’s a time taking process and tiring too because you have to keep on holding the heavy tawa by turning upside down on stove.
In air fryer and oven, you just have to slide naan in the appliance and they are ready without any hardship on your part.
Furthermore, if talking about oven, it can make more than 1 naan in one go, which is not possible in air Fryer and tawa.
With the oven and air fryer’s efficiency, naan can be prepared quickly, providing a convenient way to enjoy this classic flatbread at home. The result is a satisfyingly crisp and fluffy naan, showcasing the versatility of the air fryer in recreating traditional favorites with a contemporary touch.
In this recipe, we guide you through each step, ensuring that even novice cooks can master the art of Air Fryer Naan. So get ready to elevate your home-cooking game and savor the aromatic bliss of freshly baked naan, courtesy of your trusty oven and air fryer.
